Time for Meditation

This morning I spent some quiet time before work in meditation. It is becoming apparent that I’m not setting aside enough time for quiet or meditation.

I require quiet on a regular basis. I think it’s part of the reason I’m so comfortable being alone so often. I can control all the sound in my world that way. Despite this I’m not getting enough time for quiet and meditation.

Today was incredibly busy, and much happened in it. I started at 5:30 this morning and it’s now … well, it’s now the next day at 12:21 a.m. Regardless, it has been a long day.

At lunchtime was our social media club gathering and it was great. We had 15 people show up, and that was fabulous. I didn’t get a chance to visit with everyone – seems that’s always the case with something like this – you can really only visit with the folks in your immediate vicinity. But, it was a great group.

I had a very busy workday, too. I’m putting together an article about an employee who’s going to work for NASA. We’re all so proud of her! I first met her when we did leadership a few years ago.

Then after work I went to see the Drum and Bugle Corp competition. This is obviously a very, very big deal for many folks, but I was pretty ignorant of the whole thing. But, it was something I’d never done before, and I had the opportunity to go, so I did.

Finally got home after 10 and started on my list of personal things to get through. I’m hoping to get to sleep before 1 a.m. I’m starting to see why I don’t get enough quiet time..
